Align Rear Wheel (Cont.)

NOTE: Turn the axle adjusters about 1/16 of a turn at a time and monitor wheel alignment as you proceed.

5. Insert the universal tool (4) through the access hole in the

back of the swingarm and turn the axle adjuster bolt IN
(clockwise) to draw the axle back or OUT (counterclockwise)
to push the axle forward.

6. Recheck rear wheel alignment as outlined after each adjustment.

Readjust if necessary, until the marks on both axle washers are in
the same position in relation to swingarm marks and the drive
belt tension is correct (see “Check Drive Belt Tension,” page
88).

7. When wheel is aligned according to the marks and drive belt

tension is correct, tighten the axle nut.
